Nestled within a 4,000m² plot of olive, lemon and fig trees just steps from the sea, Driftwood Eco Villa is a place where time moves differently. Built from wood and stone in harmony with the Kefalonian landscape, every detail — from the handcrafted driftwood décor and natural Cocomat bedding to the EU Eco-awarded private pool and olive oil bathroom amenities — reflects a deep commitment to simplicity, authenticity and care for the environment.

Hosts Maria and Dennis have created more than a place to stay. They have shaped an experience that invites guests to slow down, breathe, and reconnect — with nature, with the island, and with themselves.
